If there's one thing I dont like about Christmas, It's the fact that finding a take out/delivery pizza or chinese place open (let alone anywhere else) is next to impossible.

so that means tonight I dine on crackers and cheese. :(

Well its Christmas, most businesses close anyway and others that don't necessarily have a link through belief or customs take the opportunity to close as business is reduced greatly and the demand isn't relly there.

Well that is from a UK perpective, next year, shops larger than a few thousand square feet will not be aloud to open by law.

I celebrate Christmas so it isn' really a problem for me at all but if you didn't it might be but then again most over here do a weekly shop and it would be unlikely that they are short of food.

So i can't really agree but i can understand your situation. :)

lol i wouldnt want pizza tonite, but i guess if i didnt have a turkey id consider it..

yes I have no turkey and the cupboards are bare.

it'll be my first non-traditional christmas in awhile

My dad's friend runs a pizza business and was smart enough to stay open today. Got quite a bit of busines, too!

If a grocery store is open, get some tomato sauce, mozzerella cheese, and a Boboli pizza crust.. they're REALLY tasty!

Planning ahead is a good idea. I mean, didn't you know most places would be closed today?

Sorry to hear about the cheese and crackers day though.

We had pizza last night... and, today I am stuck eating Mac & Cheese.

I had something similar happen - I'm a caffiene addict like many here are... And I ran out of my favorite caffinated beverage - found a 7-11 that's open today though, so it's all good :)

But you seriously have no food in the house? :eek:

I have enough food for breakfast tomorrow morning. (porridge oranges and bagels)

I left for a few days on the 22nd, and I felt that there was no point in buying groceries for an empty house.

upon my return today... no food, nothing open.

and tomorrow no time to buy anything... work 5am-8pm.


luckily I am not a coffee drinker. I'd be hurting right now.

ouch! you work some long hours woodshedd!

Hey, just crack open a bottle of Chianti, and let it breathe. Then open up a simple can of tuna, pour some vodka on it, light it, and have yourself a "tuna flambe".

Such a simple meal, such elegance.

(Don't forget to blow out the flame before taking your first bite. :eek: )

Merry Christmas. :D

Wua i actually left without cigs in Christmas Eve's, while i was out in a restaurant with my girl. And they didn't ever sold cigs in the restaurant, so i had to "go walk" and search for cigs. Lucky me - i found a store open quick enough.
Though i saved some food for those days. And mom' also made a lot of food. I'm like a pig now :santa2:
And actually i'm not pretty used with "american's way of eat" so i can't recommend you something. Though i wish you a Merry Christmas, with or without food. :D

Regards,
Adrian.

Thanks Adrian. :)

I'm not used to the American fashion of eating either; I excercise a little restraint :D

7-11 is open so I'll see what sort of semi-natural food item I can score myself tonight.

and about the long hours... that's retail sales for you, at least on Canada's equivalent of the day after US thanksgiving.

Go to a movie...have popcorn. :) Or try a Mobil Mart..lol...

I love Pizza!!!!!!!!!!!(Thick Crust is the BEST)
